2008 actuated forklifts

[apples000]

Robonauts 2008 had this, but their youtube video has been taken down. Their old website has it, but the site itself is tricky to find. They may have it redirect to their new site.

We had one on our 2008 robot. See the "how we gonna launch" thread for pics

272 and 118 jump to mind immediately.

Not great shots, but here are the best I could find of 272.

Thanks a bunch. I was mostly interested in the geometry/linkage for the second actuation, and it looks from this video like it's pretty much what I'd have expected it to be.

While their design is different and simpler, I think 1114's 2008 design is definitely worth taking a look at as well.

another one to look at is 1731 from 2008. you can probably find it from nasa vcu pictures or video.

I believe 384 and 1086 (Both Virginia teams) had this style intake, and you can find their pictures from the VCU event as well on CD Media.

Team 39 dominated the Arizona regional with this style of design in 2008. Unfortunately I don't see a picture of them in CD media.
